After many purchases from B&H I really trust them. I cancelled my amazon prime subscription because most items I would buy off amazon I can get from B&H, and I got tired of wondering if I was going to get a genuine product in the mail from amazon. They always have what I need(primarily photography equipment) at a reasonable price, pack it well for shipping, and ship fast. One of the few companies I would feel comfortable asking for purchasing advice.
My name is Marco, and I'm from Brazil. I made an international purchase on the B&H website on 11/26/24, with delivery scheduled for 11/27/24. I work in content creation and recording for the internet, and I purchased an SSL2 interface. The delivery address was in Kissimmee, FL. This order was to be brought to me by a friend. I tracked the delivery on the B&H website, and the package arrived on 11/27/24. I contacted my friend to confirm if everything was correct. To my surprise, the product didn't arrive. I checked the FedEx website and saw that the package had been sent to 166 Bristol Ave, Hyannis, MA 02601, *******503. I contacted B&H to report the issue, and their response was that the product had been delivered and that nothing could be done. They said their website confirms delivery data before completing the purchase, which didn't happen in my case, as no such confirmation appeared for me. I double-checked the Kissimmee, FL address before completing the order. It's important to mention that earlier this year, I made another purchase through B&H to the same address, and everything went smoothly. However, this situation is much more serious. Outraged by this delivery error, I started researching online and found other serious reports of customers facing similar issues, and it seems that these occurrences are being completely ignored. In my opinion, there are signs of a scheme where criminals are compromising B&H's website, possibly using USB devices in places with internet access that prevent IP identification. These intruders interfere with the purchase process, redirect products to alternate addresses, and no one notices, not even B&H. I wrote to the company asking them not to ignore my report, as they have a great reputation, and this is jeopardizing their legacy. Please consider the following: How could I have specifically directed the shipment to 166 Bristol Ave, Hyannis, MA 02601, *******503? I wouldn't have known how to detail that address. I have no personal or professional connections to anyone in that region. If I had received any notification about a different address, I would have noticed the error and corrected it immediately before completing the purchase. Why was this address concealed, and why wasn't I notified? I only discovered this Massachusetts address on FedEx's website, as it was never shown to me. This situation clearly indicates a serious problem. Please understand that I am facing both a financial loss and a serious impact on my work. I am a digital content creator who depends on this equipment and trusted your store. As an American company, I believe B&H should value consumer rights. I've asked them not to ignore this issue. There are clear signs of fraud that will continue unless addressed. Finally, considering the clear security failure in B&H's online transaction system, I understand that B&H holds co-responsibility for completing this compromised transaction. I should not be penalized for the vulnerability of B&H's system. I have requested a solution beyond the responses of "we can't do anything" or "you wrote the wrong address." I need this product to continue my work. I've provided my phone number here in Brazil in the hope of a real solution to this issue. Thank you for your attention, and I eagerly await a satisfactory response from B&H.
Spoke to another unconcern ignorant customer service agent today about an order placed on July 21. He then sent me to a manager with a wait time of 51 minutes. Joke of a store. I ordered the Canon R5 back on July 21 and after lies and numerous phone calls telling me I would get it on four different dates, I find out three of my friends ordered it a week and a half ago and received the camera last week. I called BH again and the guy had not a clue and that is when I asked for a manager. My order number was *******503 and one of my friends order number is *******. She got the camera less than a week upon ordering on Oct 4. You are the worst BH Photo. I shall never purchase from u again. Seriously. I would be waiting until who knows when I would get this camera. They told me so many times these people would not get their camera before me and they did. This company is so messed up. I will shop at Adorama or Best ZBuy or evening Amazon. Done with these ignorants. I am sure there are many of u who realize this incompetence or don't realize your R5 body is never coming to you. BH system is recalled screwed up and they don't even know it and when I prove it to them, they don't even care. I am done with this nonsense. I wish I could sue them for lying and ignorance, but not worth my time. Thanks for the stick up my u know what!

After comparing other websites I went with B&H because they offered free shipping to Canada. That sold it for me. Best price on the net was also a big incentive.

My name is Jaime (@jaimechanphoto). I'm writing a review to share a wonderful experience. As many of you might know - their staff observes Jewish holidays (to which I respect willingly). I am a Photographer and computer savvy person who goes to B&H for almost anything I can get there for the needs I have with photo, computer, and even audio too (basically anything tech)!
I saw an item on my Wishlist that entered their "Deal Zone", which is a flash-sale basically for select items. I couldn't check out because they were observing a Holiday/Sabbath (I forgot what it was), but I didn't give up. I entered a chat with one of the online agent (John J, I believe) literally 2 days AFTER the sale ended to mention that - and he granted me a one-time price match as a second chance! Saved $20... on a $30 item, that is. 66% discount - *******% unexpectedly pleased. T_T
This isn't the first time I've unexpectedly had a request fulfilled like this from B&H. I really appreciate them and hope you have the same experiences as I do with them. =]
Tip for consumers:
Ask and you shall receive (price match) =]

Great & professional website, had no problems with B&H, after being scammed by AJ Richies.com, I was really hesitant on ordering anything online anymore, but things could have gone no smoother with B&H, I ordered a refurbished Canon, it took probably less then a week to arrive in TX, and the camera looked brand new, everything was packaged with care, and works perfect, only reason why I am giving them a 4 star instead of a 5, is cause I only ordered from B&H once, but I do plan on giving them my service in the near future as well as follow up reviews, know this, STAY AWAY FROM AJRICHES.COM AND ALL ITS AFFILIATES, they're a super rip off, just look up any reviews on them and you'll see what I am talking about, I wrote one on here about them and I'm only one out of 100's they scammed, anyways B&H was great, I would suggest them to a friend.
